Buccaneers' Evans will play vs. Saints

Bob Donnan / USA TODAY Sports

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans is active and will play in Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Evans sat out last week's season opener with a hamstring injury and was deemed questionable after three consecutive practices as a limited participant this week.

His return, alongside Vincent Jackson, puts the Buccaneers' receiving corps at full strength for a matchup with a thin Saints secondary.

Evans should be quick to reemerge as the No. 1 target for young quarterback Jameis Winston, building upon the standout rookie season he put together in 2014.
